Answer:

X<6

Explanation:

x-8<-2

So first off, you want to get X by itself. To do that you have to do the opposite of what the number is. If the number is negative you add it. If the number is positive, you subtract it. What you do on one side, you do on both.

x-8<-2

+8 +8

X<-2+8

Next, You need to add alike terms.

X<6
